Artist's notes:

As I've drilled down deeper and deeper into the various bird species,
I've found a few types of birds that I have trouble fitting into the
existing categories I've created. The Common Raven was one, and it wasn't
until I completed the American Crow that I realized I'd need to create
another category. I did a search on ravens and crows, as I knew they'd
be grouped together, and noted that magpies and jays are also commonly
added to create a collection of birds I might not otherwise have thought
to group together. As I've been meaning to draw a magpie for some time,
this should give me sufficient reason to finally get around to do doing
so. If you have a suggestion for another bird to add to this page please
send me an email.

Information about Ravens, Magpies and Crows:

Crows, ravens and magpies are members of the family of Corvidae, which
are oscine passerine birds. They are found on nearly all continents except
for Antarctica. Their ancestory can be traced back to Asia. All of these
birds score very high on the intelligence scale, especially ravens and crows,
who have been seen using tools to obtain food and solve other problems.
Crows have been observed taking hard to crack open nuts from the ground
and dropping them onto a road with slow moving traffic. The crows then wait
for the nuts be crushed open by passing vehicles, returning to eat them.
Crows in Australia have learned to eat the highly toxic cane toads by flipping
them over onto their backs and stabbing the tissue in the neck, bypassing
the toxins in the toad's glands at the top of the head. American Crows are
highly susceptible to West Nile virus although there appears to be little
impact on their populations, which have expanded into nearly every possible
environment in North America
